we have a pile of conflicts with our IE apps. Impossible to get people to update their apps to work outside of ie6 in some cases. I think that was the main reason.
I hate having hte two infrastructures as well. What i've personally seen around the vmware apps, and hte packages themselves, they require a pile of troubleshooting as well. Piles of options hidden in the background and lots of rework. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Roland Janus Sent: December 4, 2014 5:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [mssms] RE: VMware on the way .. the workspace client VS SCCM 2012? What exactly do you want to get out of it? You have many apps, many conflicting ones, or is it the speed? I see it as managing two infrastructures doing similar things.

So the app-v stuff or Microsofts product is lacking by the looks of things. ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul Winstanley Sent: December 4, 2014 3:49 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [mssms] RE: VMware on the way .. the workspace client VS SCCM 2012? John I take it you are talking about app-v v VMware app virtualisation and managing of that. Yes IE can be virtualised with the VMware technology but honestly why bother. Here's a cool round up of app v and the competition that Rory Monaghan presented recently at the app-v UK user group meet up in London http://rorymon.com/blog/index.php/app-v-user-group-uk-app-v-vs-the-competition/ On 4 Dec 2014, at 19:33, Burke, John <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: but what about when it comes to the vm space. I'm guessing they were not talking about management and more about just virtual applications and managing those. ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniel Ratliff Sent: December 4, 2014 3:15 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] RE: VMware on the way .. the workspace client VS SCCM 2012?

I haven't used it, but they certainly don't have 99% of the market share for systems management. Last I heard ConfigMgr has something like 70% market share there.

Hi Folks, We haven't gotten around to putting in SCCM 2012 and VMWARE has been selling pretty hard here. We are about to roll out the workspace client and it seems earily familar to some of the stuff SCCM does in 2012. Does anyone know if this is a direct competing product? Are there issues having both clients on the boxes? I did ask about a bit and they said they went with VMWARE because it had 99% of the market share and that it could virtualize IE and Microsofts version cannot. Is that true? That seems like a pretty bad thing to be unable to virtualize IE to get past some really junky apps.
